Bowlers
Bhuvneshwar Kumar
India's best bowler in this tournament. It's a no-brainer to involve him in this high voltage clash. Bhuvi has been very consistent with the new ball and towards the death as well. He can swing the ball both ways which makes him very lethal and difficult to pick. Bhuvi will be eager to take the field on Friday.
Kuldeep Yadav
The left-arm Chinaman has been a mystery to many. Batsmen have struggled to pick him in this Asia Cup and he has continued his habit of picking up wickets in the middle overs. Kuldeep bowls according to the set plan and is more often than not, rewarded for his hard work. He has had a good tournament so far and he'll look to finish it on a high.
Jasprit Bumrah
The yorker-king has been phenomenal at the death. He played a pivotal role in restricting Pakistan to a score below 250 in the super four stages. He executes his yorkers very well and that makes him stand out. He's very consistent at the death and is a nightmare to many. Jasprit forms a lethal new-ball pair with Bhuvi.
Yuzvendra Chahal
Chahal has been the skipper's go-to man whenever a partnership break is required in the middle-overs. He flights the ball really well and invites the batsmen to play their shots. But what they fail to notice is that he's deceptive through the air and they often end up losing their wickets. He is a really smart bowler and is key to India's bowling plans.
